Troops: US Troops, Families Get Christmas Gift - Online

For Immediate Release

December 6, 2004

(Atlanta, GA) U.S. Troops and families are being given a Christmas gift that can magically cross the miles and bring smiles. It's a book, Casey and the Amazing Giant Green Shirt by Margaret S Ross. And it's free.

The Casey e-book is a perfect holiday story, explains author Margaret S. Ross, because the message of Casey and the Amazing Giant Green Shirt includes the real secret of making spirits bright and that's helping others.' Ross, president of Kamaron® Institute, wrote the children's story in response to the events of September 11th and provides the e-book version as a ‘thank you gift' to military families from Kamaron Institute site, www.kamaron.org/for_military.html.

It's been a gift hit. More than twenty-thousand U.S. troops and families have accepted and downloaded the gift e-book version of the Casey story. "They represent all branches of the service and contact us from around the globe,' says Ross. "Those downloading the story, usually thank us for thinking of them. That's humbling, considering all that the troops and families do for us. The funniest feedback was from a Navy Lieutenant who suggested that I write a book about Casey's other grandfather, who would, of course, be retired Navy.'

How Christmas Gift Works: "A parent about to be deployed can print out the story, personalize and sign page 27. Then each time their child reads the Casey story, they see that special message and remember they are loved.' Plus, continues, Ross, "With an e-book, a parent away from home for the holidays, can send their child the Casey story gift as an email with the link to the e-book www.kamaron.org/for_military.html inside. No postage. No wrapping required. One size fits all.'
